Some Aussie footy fans might have heard of a Kris Massey. I think he plays for St Kilda, or some other Melbourne-based team. Anyhoo, I went to school with him in Melbourne. He was 2 years above me and was your typical meat-head jock who all of the girls worshipped and idolised. I was the only girl who actually frequently bullied him. God he was a tosser. ---

I used to ban… umm… sleep… umm… be close friends with Robyn Bernard from General Hospital, Crystal’s sister. Crystal was okay but she was kinda snooty. A gal pal from HS married Don Henley. ---

Also, Dr. Milo T. Pinkerton from here: > **[The Consortium of Genius](http://www.consortiumofgenius.com/)** > > Home of the greatest geniuses in rock history. used to be my best friend in grades 1 through 3. Imagine my surprise at discovering where he is now. No, that isn’t his real name. ---

Palisades High - Pacific Palisades, California. In my graduating class: \*\* Susanna Hoffs\*\*, lead singer of the _Bangles_. **Kiki Vandeweghe** , former NBA player, now management with the Denver Nuggets. **Teresa Laughlin** , daughter of Tom Laughlin of _Billy Jack_ fame, she was also in the movie, playing guitar and singing. **Carol Chaikin** , jazz flautist extraordanaire. **Sandra Kinsler** , founder and editor of _Woman Motorist_ magazine. Also attending Palisades when I was there: **Amy Alcott** , LPGA star player. **Amelia Linden** , daughter of Hal Linden (_Barney Miller_). And I’m sure there are many others that I missed - Pacific Palisades is a movie star community, and many kids of famous people went to Palisades High. ---

That kid **Ethan Zohn** (who won Survivor) was a senior when I was a freshman… Also, an old friend **[Alex Chansky](http://us.imdb.com/Name?Chansky,+Alex)**, though arguably famous, did stunt work for some movies including the new Spider-Man… ---

I went to high school with [Jayne Kennedy](http://us.imdb.com/Name?Kennedy,+Jayne) (Miss Ohio 1970, actress), but I doubt she remembers me since I was a lowly sophomore the year she was a senior. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/famous-schoolmates/106648.md?page=3)
